My Seven Sisters Are Stunningly Beautiful (The Return of the Gods)

Before Lu Yun could finish telling his story, Shen Yuanbao's eyes were red, he was sniffing, and he looked like he was about to cry. He interrupted Lu Yun excitedly.

"Lu Yun, this is too pitiful for you! You came from such a far place and went through so much hardship just to save your sisters. This... this is simply a legend!"

Shen Qing, who was standing by, saw Shen Yuanbao like this, his mouth twitched, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, as if to say, "Look at what you have accomplished."

She coughed lightly to hide her subtle emotions, then sighed, with a little more tenderness and concern in her eyes.

"It seems that your journey, Lu Yun, was indeed not easy. To be able to reach the level of Golden Immortal, you must have experienced many unexpected events."

"The realm of Daluo Jinxian is a huge hurdle on the road of cultivation. From now on, cultivation depends entirely on personal understanding. Without the guidance of the practice method, if the previous foundation is not solid, it is easy to have problems in the middle stage of the Tao foundation, and serious problems may even collapse."

Shen Qing's eyes fell gently on Lu Yun, and she said softly, "Lu Yun, do you mind if Aunt Qing takes your pulse to see how your foundation is?"

Lu Yun smiled and nodded, generously extending his left hand, with a relaxed tone, "Of course I don't mind. It's my honor to receive Aunt Qing's guidance."

Shen Qing gently placed his hand on Lu Yun's wrist, closed his eyes and concentrated, pressing delicately with his fingers, a look of surprise gradually appearing on his face.

After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes with a complex look, showing both surprise and admiration. "Well, your pulse is quite peculiar. Although your cultivation has reached the Golden Immortal level, it seems that your foundation is very solid. There is also some special aura mixed in it, especially in your Dantian. This..."

Shen Qing's eyes suddenly widened, and hesitantly seemed to be speaking, obviously having some concerns.

Shen Qing turned to look at Shen Yuanbao, his face becoming serious, "Shen Xiaopang, go out first. Mother has something to talk to your brother alone."

When Shen Yuanbao saw his mother's unprecedented serious expression, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

As if he had a premonition of something bad, but couldn't guess why, he had to stand up obediently and walked out, looking back every few steps. Before leaving, he gave Lu Yun an encouraging look, as if to say, "Brother, you wish yourself good luck!"

Shen Qing waited until Shen Yuanbao's footsteps completely disappeared before he turned to Lu Yun again, his tone becoming more serious.

"Lu Yun, your situation is more complicated than I thought. Your true level of cultivation is Quasi-Saint, right?"

Without waiting for Lu Yun to answer, Shen Qing started talking again.

"Your cultivation level has improved too quickly, but you have taken the wrong path to Quasi-Sainthood. If you continue like this, it will be very dangerous in the future. However, the fact that you are able to break through to Quasi-Sainthood in this state shows that there is some special opportunity hidden in you."

"I have an ancient conditioning method here. Although it cannot directly improve your cultivation, it can help you consolidate your foundation and assist you in regaining the Quasi-Sage realm. Are you willing to try it?"

Lu Yun nodded gratefully, his eyes firm, "Aunt Qing, as long as it allows me to better protect my sister, I am willing to try any method."

Shen Qing nodded with satisfaction and took out a yellowed booklet from his bosom. The cover was engraved with ancient runes, which looked extremely mysterious. "This is the 'Chaos Return to Origin' Secret'. Take it and have a look. Remember, you must be focused when practicing and don't rush for success."

"Thank you, Aunt Qing."

Shen Qing patted Lu Yun on the shoulder, "I believe you. But this is not the point. You have the Blood Moon Hall's curse in your Dantian. Do you know this?"

Lu Yun was stunned. He didn't expect Aunt Qing could see this, so he told her everything that happened in Mingcheng.

After listening to Lu Yun's narration, Shen Qing's originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed. She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge stone had been lifted off her shoulders.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just the head of a remote place in Mingcheng. Aunt Qing will help you solve this matter. I will go and refine a pill that can temporarily suppress this curse, so that you have some buffer time."

"However, Lu Yun, you have to be careful from now on and don't have anything to do with the Blood Moon Sect anymore. I heard that they have a close connection with Youyue Valley, one of the three sects. Youyue Valley is not a group that you can easily mess with."

There was a hint of concern in Shen Qing's words, and her eyes sparkled with the love and worry of an elder for the younger generation.

"You are at the Quasi-Saint level, which is very powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is still not good enough for the level of the three sects. If you face them, you must be careful and avoid them if you can."

Lu Yun listened to Shen Qing's words, and an indescribable warmth surged in his heart. This was the first time since he left his hometown that he felt the care and protection of someone other than his sister. Gratitude surged from the bottom of his heart like a tide, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten, with hot tears rolling in his eyes.

He stood up and wanted to bow and salute to express his gratitude in the most traditional manner. But Shen Qing was quick-witted and took a step forward, gently holding Lu Yun's arm, stopping his movement with a warm smile on his face.

Shen Qing could sense Lu Yun's mood, so naturally he wouldn't let Lu Yun really bow down.

"Hey, Xiao Lu, what are you doing? Get up, get up. You are Xiao Pang's friend, and these are what I should do. I just do it for the sake of convenience. You're welcome."

"Look, we've come to this point. It's time for us to have lunch. Let's go. Auntie Qing will make you braised pork with vermicelli today. I guarantee that the taste will be unforgettable. Let you also have a taste of Auntie Qing's cooking skills."

As Shen Qing spoke, he naturally took Lu Yun's arm, as if he was treating his own child. The intimacy and warmth made people feel warm inside.

Lu Yun was caught off guard by Shen Qing's sudden intimate behavior. His face flushed slightly, but his heart was deeply moved.

Shen Qing smiled and shook his head, then led Lu Yun to the kitchen. Along the way, he kept introducing some interesting things at home, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

As she walked, she picked a few fresh leaves from the yard and put them into the small cloth bag she carried with her. She was muttering to herself, as if she was preparing something.

"Lu Yun, don't think this braised pork with vermicelli sounds simple. It contains my exclusive secret seasoning that you can't get outside."

"This seasoning contains the purple spirit leaves that I grew myself, as well as the mist grass that I picked from deep in the forest. It adds flavor and relieves greasiness. You'll know once you taste it."

In the kitchen, the fire was burning brightly and the oil in the pot was smoking. Shen Qing skillfully put the cut pork into the pot. With a "sizzling" sound, the rich aroma of the meat instantly spread, making people drool.

"Although Xiaopang looks carefree, he is actually kind-hearted. I am happy for him to have a friend like you. In the future, if you need any help, just come to Aunt Qing. We are all family."
